    Copyright by John F. Cline 2012 The Dissertation Committee for John F. Cline Certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking Committee: Mark C. Smith, Supervisor Steven Hoelscher Randolph Lewis Karl Hagstrom Miller Shirley Thompson Permanent Underground: Radical Sounds and Social Formations in 20th Century American Musicking by John F. Cline, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2012 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my mother and father, Gary and Linda Cline. Without their generous hearts, tolerant ears, and (occasionally) open pocketbooks, I would have never made it this far, in any endeavor. A second, related dedication goes out to my siblings, Nicholas and Elizabeth. We all get the help we need when we need it most, don’t we? Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to thank my dissertation supervisor, Mark Smith. Even though we don’t necessarily work on the same kinds of topics, I’ve always appreciated his patient advice. I’m sure he’d be loath to use the word “wisdom,” but his open mind combined with ample, sometimes non-academic experience provided reassurances when they were needed most. Following closely on Mark’s heels is Karl Miller. Although not technically my supervisor, his generosity with his time and his always valuable (if sometimes painful) feedback during the dissertation writing process was absolutely essential to the development of the project, especially while Mark was abroad on a Fulbright.

    Chicago Music Communities and the Everyday Significance of Playing Jazz

    MUSIC PRACTICES AS SOCIAL RELATIONS: CHICAGO MUSIC COMMUNITIES AND THE EVERYDAY SIGNIFICANCE OF PLAYING JAZZ by John Frederic Behling A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Music: Musicology) in The University of Michigan 2010 Doctoral Committee: Professor Mark Allan Clague, Chair Professor Paul A. Anderson Professor Kelly M. Askew Professor Charles Hiroshi Garrett Copyright John Frederic Behling 2010 Acknowledgements In this dissertation, I argue that the solos of jazz musicians spring from the practices of the communities in which they live. What holds true for expression and creativity in jazz is no less true of academic research and writing. This dissertation would not be possible without the support and encouragement of many communities and individuals. I thank all the musicians in Chicago who played music with me and welcomed me into their communities. I am especially grateful to Aki Antonia Smith, Edwina Smith, Scott Earl Holman, and Ed Breazeale for befriending me and introducing me to the musicians and communities about whom I write. I am also grateful for the support of my academic community. Kelly Askew introduced me to the anthropological side of ethnomusicology. Her writing showed me what compassionate and concrete ethnography should be like. Paul Anderson’s late night seminars helped me understand that musical practices have philosophical and psychological significance and that jazz criticism is part of a much larger and long- standing intellectual conversation. Charles Hiroshi Garrett, a late addition to my committee, embraced this project with enthusiasm. His generous encouragement and insightful comments are greatly appreciated.

To my mother, Azelma Dolores Chism, who, by her example, taught me to not wait until “didn’t.” (Don’t worry, you’ll read about “didn’t”), and not to ever, ever give up until you’ve won, or died trying. To my big brother-brother, Marcus Burnell Chism, aka, Yeshiah Ben Shaleak, who, by concrete example, taught me that nobody defines me, and nobody corrals me, because I’m “a man on the planet, unbound.” To my wife of 31 years, Morna, whose external life, every single nano- second, reflects her inner spiritual belief in, reliance upon, and love of The Divine and gives me a daily example to continue trying to emulate.

To the awesome, tough-love, no-excuses-accepted, progressive Black community of pre-1960s America, which produced, all over the United States, strong independent Black institutions and economies, regardless of segregation.

Also note the attention that Ellington's soloists gave to timbre and envelope (attack, change of timbre and loudness over time, and decay), like many others who began their careers in early jazz of the 1920s. Wide variation of timbre and envelope were less often used as expressive devices (except by a few players) in late swing, bebop and early modern jazz of the late 1930s through the 1950s. Exceptions during that period, especially in rhythm and blues, were viewed by many in the jazz world as unsophisticated, vulgar, and/or a means of pandering to audiences' bad taste. In the 1960s, avant-garde players reclaimed wide variations in timbre and envelope as important expressive parameters. 2.
